SUMMARY OF ISSUES ADDRESSED
Known Issues Resolved
- Resolved the following Autodesk Reference Repair Utility issues;
- "Some files could not be processed due to errors" message.
- "The utility has encountered some errors and it has stopped working" message.
- Localized versions of Vault server without a default 'Administrator' account was causing login to fail.
- Logging into a Vault server with IIS running on a port other than 80 was causing login to fail.
- Certain
assemblies containing multiple child relationships may return redundant
relationship information. This update eliminates unnecessary data
resulting in increased purge performance.
- AutoCAD
properties configured with a bi-direction mapping will not update when
performing some 'update properties' workflows (especially API calls).
- Using Plot Manager to plot DWGs will cause Vault Explorer to
become unresponsive for Japanese versions of the product.
- When
checking in assemblies to a Vault, an incorrect BOM quantity may be
extracted resulting in incorrect Item quantities. The update applies to
new data added to a Vault. Existing data will need to be checked out,
edited and checked in to correct BOM data.
- For very large assemblies, invoking Vault dialogs can result in an out of memory condition and an Inventor crash.
- For
non-English languages, separator characters were not being honored in
the default language. This would cause the BOM value to be converted
from 22.22 to 2222. The update applies to new data added to a Vault.
Existing data will need to be checked out, edited and checked in to
correct BOM data.
- Certain assemblies containing multiple
child relationships may return redundant relationship information. This
update eliminates unnecessary data resulting in increased purge
performance.
- For systems with large numbers of Web Client
users, log in may become unresponsive and Vault client log in may
result in the message "Vault has detected tampering with the security
subsystem. Unlicensed client access is currently prohibited." The vlog
may contain multiple "PermissionTamperingDetected [320]" messages.
- For
Vault properties mapped to a custom office file property, the Update
Properties toolbar button may be inactive when accessing Office files
on subscriber ADMS instances.
- Not all files are checked in to the Vault when simultaneously checking in 50 or more Office documents.
- Fixed
for Vault Professional only – Emails from Outlook are not getting
Checked into Vault when multiple Check-in operations happen
simultaneously.
- CER: Unexpected exit of Inventor when
generating the member files of iParts or iAssemblies if the file names
and member names are different. (Requires the installation of Autodesk
Inventor 2013 Service Pack 2 to resolve this issue.)
- When
using the Assign or Update Item dialogs to update items, only the first
level children may show up in the assign item wizard, even though other
children are in need of updating before Items can be released.
